Oldham County has not had an FCS council in the past three years.  A functional council contributes to the planning and marketing of FCS programming.  The FCS Agent invited a diverse group of individuals from different areas and professions in Oldham County to participate; eight people accepted and met on July 1.  The council went through council training and accepted a set of bylaws.  Seven of the eight council members are new to extension, and 3 of the eight have volunteered at the extension office since joining the council.
